Hi Troppo
The northern NT certainly has a lot to offer tourists be they bush travellers or wanting something more sophisticated. We didn't see all that much of it and hope to come through again in the future.
Darwin was the only city we chose to visit on our last trip.
Maybe
Butterfly Gorge would be better at a different time of the year. Climbing through
the gorge was slimy and slippery and not very pleasant, and the butterflies were not at
home. We saw more butterflies (like half a dozen) walking along the creek to get there than in
the Gorge, or at any time while enjoying the warm water back at
camp. It was acceptable, but not worth the time taken to drive in and out on the day. We also took the walk over the top looking down into
the pool, but chose not to climb down from there, returning to the
fork and following the creek.
Kakadu and
Litchfield are both must see
places for anyone; both very different to each other, and both having a variety of very different features. Forget the Kakadon't people. They probably drove through the bitumen road without stopping and saw nothing.
